What are the green bar things?

So, it looks like it's replaced the how many people have voted. Still confusing. A FAQ entry might be good?

what is "posted"?

ok, and "my network"... twitter inspired?

Would be great if you guys wrote and released the docs at the same time as the code... :P (unlike the ruby function, Paul, that was doc'd but not released...)
 
silly I’m amused

    Sheesh you're quick :-) I was planning on a blog post soon after we did some more fixes and such tomorrow.

    Posted means completed/blogged. Just a finished suggestion. Posted links to the blog post.

    We don't have the notion of votes anymore.. too much like a popularity contest. Instead you can follow a suggestion.. the idea is that you follow the life of the suggestion including status updates, new comments, and blog posts. So you get notified of it.

    The bar changes color from green to red based on popularity/follows of suggestion and is only shown on non-suggestion pages. just a cool info vis way of seeing how popular something is when browsing. less clutter than having numbers all over the place. we're not digg and we want to separate ourselves from that so people don't get confused.

    You can also follow users on the site. The network is more delicious inspired, but followers are like twitter, yes. ;-) At the moment following just means you're following them.. but that's it. In our next big release when you login you'll see an activity stream of what all the people you're following are up to. Stay tuned!

    Thanks for using Skribit, as usual. ;-)
     
    happy I’m excited
